Sirena vs Hypnotic Poison

The r/fragrance community views Floris Sirena positively as a unique, luxurious fragrance with appealing fresh floral and marine notes. However, reviewers consistently note its significant weakness: extremely poor longevity and projection, making it challenging for everyday wear despite its pleasant scent profile.

Hypnotic Poison is a divisive fragrance with devoted fans and skeptics. While older formulations were praised for depth and longevity, recent batches are noticeably weaker and reformulated. The scent's gourmand profile (almond, vanilla) appeals to some but the initial notes (often described as root beer, playdough, or rubber) are off-putting to others, making it highly dependent on personal skin chemistry and preference.
